1294 Romsey Road, Romsey VIC 3434

Botanica Estate is an established boutique vineyard located in the picturesque Macedon Ranges.

Set on 7.1 hectares at the base of Mount Macedon, between the townships of Woodend and Romsey, the northerly aspect and elevation (630m above sea level) means Botanica Estate is one of the highest cool climate vineyards in Victoria. Its position, as well as the rich volcanic soils, make it ideal for growing quality Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Gewürztraminer grapes with exquisite complex flavours.

As well as a commercial vineyard, Botanica Estate boasts a successful cellar door business offering visitors to the Macedon Ranges – a key Victorian tourist destination – the opportunity to taste wine, enjoy pizzas from the wood-fired oven, and delight in the beautiful surroundings. In addition to established vines (the oldest planted 17 years ago), Botanica Estate has a superb ornamental garden featuring birch, maple and oak trees, espalier fruit orchards, berry patches and kitchen garden.

Set amongst the established gardens, the house is very functional with 3 bedrooms, a recently renovated bathroom and two living zones. The formal living room has a wood fire, ideal for enjoying the cooler months. The second living room is open plan, and connected to the kitchen which has a freestanding gas cooker and electric wall oven. French doors open onto the verandah with bush views.

There is also a substantial wine making shed with concrete floor and power, an office, amenities block and cellar door, with seating for 54 indoors and liquor licence.

This amazing property – only 25 minutes to Melbourne Airport and less than an hour to Melbourne CBD – represents an exceptional opportunity for an experienced winemaker looking to expand or a novice looking for a lifestyle property in a beautiful cool climate setting.
